"I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for He will speak peace unto His people.... Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other" (Psalm 85:8,10). "My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee, so that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom... if thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures, then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of His mouth cometh knowledge and understanding" (Proverbs 2:1-6).
Let us hear what God will speak;
Let us now incline our ear.
Hidden treasures, let us seek;
Let us come with ears to hear.
Let us hear Him with desire;
God is searching every heart!
Let us stir His holy fire;
Fan the flame He will impart!
Let us hear how God has met
The deepest need of every soul.
We too frequently forget
The price He paid to make us whole!
Let us hear and ponder this:
How truth and mercy met in Christ,
How righteousness and peace could kiss,
Because our Lord was sacrificed!
God is speaking! Have we heard
The depths of love He would convey?
Do we thus approach His Word
Prepared to hear Him and obey?
O Lord, the treasures You would show
Exceed the bounds of time and space!
Yet, hearing heaven, we would grow
To better know You and Your grace!
